Automating Your Video Editing
In this tutorial we look at several ways to go through the events on the timeline. There are many methods that can be used. We look at each, discuss when each should be used (from never to most often), and see how each works by moving several events on the timeline. The main three methods Read More …
In this tutorial, we take an older script that was written in JScript and convert it to the newer C#. There are definitely advantages to coding in C# such as being able to compile the code into a .dll file, using a “foreach” instead of an Enumerator to go through events and tracks, and the Read More …
Creating a unique icon for your script will make it easier to locate in the Script menu or on the toolbar. If you have multiple scripts on the toolbar and they all have the generic icon, it will be difficult to remember which one is the correct one for this task. By creating different icons, Read More …
This tutorial will explain how a script can be assigned to a button on the toolbar at the top of the screen or to a specific key press. Then you will not need to navigate through the various menus to find your favorite scripts. You can simply click on the toolbar button or press the Read More …
In this final rendering tutorial, we look at how to save a snapshot from the timeline. This addition will save the frame at the current cursor position as a PNG image. This script could be easily modified to save a snapshot from all marker positions or any other location on the timeline allowing you to Read More …

In this tutorial, we continue from the previous tutorial adding the ability to render all sequences in the project. Going through the list of sequences, we pass each sequence to the encoder allowing us to render all sequences in one pass. By doing this, we do not have to individually make each sequence active before Read More …
In this script, we learn how to render multiple projects at a single time. In this example, we have a wedding that is broken up between four different projects. With a single call, we can now render all four projects to the same format with a single call. The full source code and compiled DLL Read More …
In this tutorial, we continue from the previous tutorial which would render the entire project. Using the same techniques, we now pass the encoder routine the information to render a smaller portion of the track. By doing this, we can now pass each region separately to Media Encoder. Each region will be named with with Read More …
In this script, we tackle a special request from a viewer. This option will allow rendering each track separately for every region on the timeline. So, for example, if you had three tracks and five regions, you would end up with 15 files – five from each of the three tracks. Please sign up here Read More …
